The Killers - Miss Atomic Bomb lyrics

You were standing with your girlfriends in the street
Falling back on forever, I wonder what you came to be
I was new in town, the boy with the eager eyes
I never was a quitter, oblivious to schoolgirl's lies
And when I look back on thse neon nights
The leather seats, the passage rite
I feel the heat, I see the light
From Miss atomic bomb
Making that we got the radio on
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone

Racing shadows through the moonlight
Through the desert on a hot night
For a second there we won
We were innocent and young

Cast out of the night
You got a foolish heart
So you took your place with the fall from grace
Was the hardest part
It feels just like a dagger buried deep in your back
You run for cover but you can't escape the 2nd attack
Her soul was innocent, she kissed him and it pained it black
You should've seen your face

I didn't ask for much
No talk of being in the wrong place at the wrong time

[Hook]

The dust cloud has settled
And my eyes are clear
But sometimes in dreams of impact I still hear
This atomic bomb
I'm standing here, sweat on my skin
With this love I've created
Miss atomic bomb
